I have taken the advise of others on this forum to start this food diary to get myself back on track. I have not had a loss for about 4 weeks and gained 1/2lb this week !!! :confused:

I am going away this weekend with the girls so I will use flexible syns and for the next few days I am going to do Success Express.

I find it hard to get my head around success express so would be grateful for any advise.

I will be back later to post my food for the day.:)

Are you continuing on the success express? I have not heard of this myself, so would be interesting to know how you are finding it before an attempt at it myself :)

I have done Success Express the last couple of days its basically 2/3superfree and 1/3 free with only superfree for snacks. You get 2 heA and Bs and syns as normal you have to ask your consultant for the leaflet.

I am going to go back to extra easy for this week and see how I get on. I think the success express is good to break a plateau or get you back on track.

Good luck with it!!:)
